About This Book

Whether they're the result of a mandate from on high, a crisis that needs addressing, or simply a desire for improvement, change initiatives are a constant in most every school. 

In this book, veteran teacher, administrator, and consultant Jeffrey Benson provides educators with a proven, practical, and broadly applicable system for implementing new practices methodically and effectively. 

Topics include

• Identifying and communicating a clear and understandable vision of change;
• Ensuring that all voices in the school are heard and respected during the change process;
• Thoroughly and thoughtfully collecting, classifying, and analyzing data related to the change initiative; and
• Delegating responsibilities among staff and stakeholders.

Replete with checklists, surveys, and worksheets, 10 Steps to Managing Change in Schools is a practical guide for educators determined to seamlessly weave new practices or procedures into the fabric of the school.
